Michael J. Wissler, 72

November 22, 2020

On Sunday November 22, 2020 our beloved Father, Pop Pop, brother and friend passed away. Born in Lancaster, PA he was the son of the late Oscar and Mary (Stumpf) Wissler.

He is survived by his son, Michael D. Wissler husband of Jennifer of Ocean City, MD, daughter, Danielle Wissler Berardi of Lancaster; four grandchildren, Anastasia, Ainsley, Zoey, Lauren; brother, Carl Wissler husband of Peggy and sister, Patsy Styer both of Lancaster. He was preceded in death by his siblings, Vern, Mel, Merv, Jerry, Rodney and Yvonne.

Michael proudly served in the United States Marine Corp and fought in the Vietnam War. Along with his brother Carl he developed and owned many successful businesses including Car-Mic Enterprise and Brewers Outlet East. He had a huge personality and presence. You could always tell it was him coming because of his boisterous voice and the swag in his walk. He was an avid and successful poker player. Always ready for a game of cards. In his spare time he would travel, usually to warm and sunny destinations. He loved his family very deeply, always telling stories about his children and grandchildren. One of his favorite things to do was cheer on his granddaughter’s softball team. He traveled to many different states, making great memories, to support the team. Over the years he became the teams Pop Pop. If Double Dutch Bus came on the radio he would crank up the volume and have a sing along.

He was a wonderful and kind soul who made a lasting impact wherever he went. He was loved by many and will be greatly missed.

In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the Pennsylvania Wounded Warriors, 1117 Country Club Rd, Camp Hill, PA 17011. A Service will be held at Indiantown Gap National Cemetery at a later date due to COVID.

Going to miss you buddy and all your funny comments.  Appreciated your candidness…people always new where they stood with you.  For the last 10 years you have been my travel partner to Vegas each summer.  I know my future Vegas trips will always have something missing but not forgotten.  You had an impact on my children too as they loved you and the little gifts you would surprise them with.   God Bless you Mike!!!

We grew up together and have been friends for many years. Sometimes, we did not see each other often, but the friendship never faded. I will miss you, my friend. Rest in peace.

Condolences to the Wissler family. I grew up in the old neighborhood near Musser Park. You probably wouldn’t remember me but my brother Herb Snodgrass was good friends with Mike. God bless him for his service during Vietnam. Hold the good memories close to your heart.

My condolences to the Wissler family.   A true loss to all who knew Mike.   Danielle and my daughter, Michelle Walck had secretly wanted us to marry so they  could be step-sisters.    We ALWAY had a fun time together.  May you Rest In Peace and find a card game to sit in on. Fondly. Deborah Walck Bomberger
